Play WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) games on Linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Feb 2025 - 1:14pm

, I recently came across a game that's made with WPF and I can't get it to run on my arch Linux. I've tried both regular wine and all Proton versions steam makes available. In both cases it doesn't Show anything of the game and doesn't throw an error.

I've tried searching around, but all I could find Was about compiling the WPF game for Linux, not launching a compiled game. Any Tips on what else I could try?

Linux GPU - what would you buy today.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Feb 2025 - 12:00pm

Hi All,

Thinking about getting a new GPU to replace my aging RTX 2060.

Thoughts are around getting an RTX 4070 Super, however would I be best waiting for the 50xx series, although I expect supply to be very limited this year.

Or is AMD for Linux a better choice?

Appreciate expert thoughts of this group!

Thanks,

Random lag spikes in Hatsune Miku Project diva - fixing dx11 related lag issues in proton

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Feb 2025 - 11:39am

Project diva is a direct x11 steam game that seems to run fine for the most part, but things can lag heavily in busier songs which makes them somewhat unplayable as a result. And this lag never seems to go away either. I don't know what is causing this lag, nor have I found a way to fix it. My hardware is more than capable enough to run this game so I know it cant be that, apart from any nvidia specific issues that might be causing this.

I have tried the GE version of proton too with and without the "DXVK_ASYNC" option. The option did help, but there was still lag, which isnt ideal for a rhythm game. I tried adding these as launch options too to make sure that proton was using the vulkan extensions "DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME="NVIDIA" DXVK_ENABLE_PLUGINS=1 %command%" to no avail. The performance went back to being worse actually.

Anyone have a proper solution to this issue?

Heres my software and hardware info:

Operating System: Arch Linux 39.0

KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.5

KDE Frameworks Version: 6.10.0

Qt Version: 6.8.1

Kernel Version: 6.12.10-arch1-1 (64-bit)

Graphics Platform: Wayland

Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor

Memory: 62.7 GiB of RAM

Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER/PCIe/SSE2

Manufacturer: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.

Product Name: B450M DS3H

And games like doom eternal seem to run fine. So again, I am pretty sure it isnt my hardware at fault.

Unable to set laptop’s dGPU to max TGP with sudo nvidia-smi -pl 85. I have a Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 with RTX 3050 Ti with maximum 85w TGP and with default 60w TGP

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Feb 2025 - 11:01am

I already search a lot, but nothing helped. With DynamicBoost only goes up to 64w. Is there any workout without downgrading the driver to 525? On Windows the max TGP works well through Lenovo Vantage.

Black screen when installing Bazzite

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Feb 2025 - 10:21am

Hello everyone,

I am currently trying to install Bazzite for the first time, but it gets stuck and I only get a black screen after selecting the option in Grub. Tried the noapic option, disabled all the additional boot options in Bios, tried multiple monitors, DP and Hdmi, but still no solution. I have an Nvidia 3060 graphics card. Any ideas? Or do you recommend another Distribution which has less problems?
